Both are successors of the original MiBand, which boosted Xiaomi to being third biggest smart wearable producer overally. All of the smartbands carry a simply yet very efficient design, which perfectly fulfills the role of daily sport and sleep monitoring. And the new models can also throw in the mix the heartrate sensor, which the original model lacked.
Xiaomi Mi Band 2 is also equipped with a small non-touchscreen display and one touch button. Both bands are working fully only when paired with a phone via a Bluetooth connection and using the Mi Fit app. You can check out the more detailed descriptions and opinions in our reviews.

My MiBand 2 broke
It still works, as in I can see it counting steps and all that, but it quite simply will not connect to any phone via bluetooth
I have no idea why! Never had this problem with the 1S
I’m still waiting for Android Wear devices from China…
